Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Each day begins with a collaborative team briefing, followed by a varied mix of:
- 1:1 therapy sessions
- Small group interventions
- In-class support alongside teachers
You’ll also have opportunities to:
- Support and mentor less experienced therapists
- Contribute to training and development of Team Members
- Support pupils on placement
We are committed to your professional growth, with protected time for clinical development and ongoing training—so you can continue progressing while enjoying a balanced schedule.
What a Typical Day Looks Like
- Delivering trauma-informed therapy to a manageable caseload of pupils with SEMH needs, Learning Disabilities, and Autism
- Working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team, including therapists, teachers, and teaching assistants
- Participating in team meetings and contributing to holistic care plans
- Completing administrative tasks easily during quieter periods or from home during school holidays
What You’ll Need
- Degree in Speech and Language Therapy
- HCPC Registration and RCSLT membership
- Basic IT skills (Microsoft Office: Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams)
- Full UK driving licence (occasional offsite meetings)
